Can anyone identify the Brahea species highlighted in this photo of the gardenside view of the Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild?

My guess is B.armata. Perhaps easier to tell with the inflorescences.

Ah! My screen didn’t show the silver blue coloring. It looked plain green. Harry

Look carefully at the two foreground palms.  The image appears to show long filaments that exceed the crown profile. These are likely old spadices, a diagnostic character for B. armata,  Thanks for posting !  :greenthumb:
